Filter by:This randomized controlled study will enroll the eligible patients to either the Buzzy device arm or to the EMLA cream arm as a standard therapy. This will be done with concealment; however, blinding will not be practical. Will include 300 participants with 150 in each arm in Al Saad pediatric emergency. The research nurse will use a known valid and reliable measurements scales for the pain and anxiety. The data will be recorded with timing in a prepared form, The SPSS 22.0 and Epi-info soft wares and appropriate statistical tests will be used and will consider P value of <0.05 is statistically significant. The investigators are anticipating a Buzzy device effectiveness to be not less than the EMLA cream but the rapidity of effectiveness in buzzy device of around one minute compared to 30-45 minutes of EMLA cream will be an important outcome in a busy emergency department.
This pilot study will be testing the feasibility of medical hypnosis through virtual reality during invasive médical procédures in children with cancer. Patients age from 7 to under 18 years whose treatement protocols required a lumbure puncture and a chemotherapy by implantable venous access will be randomly assigned to virtual reality or treatement as usual (nitrous oxide, anxiolytics, opioid analgesics, psychotropic and benzodiazepine). We expect the same benefit by using VR as usual intervention.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using external cold and vibration-Buzzy and VR on reducing procedural pain and anxiety in children aged 7 to 12 years during phlebotomy injection.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of non-pharmacological pain management education given to mothers on the use of non-pharmacological methods and anxiety levels of mothers during routine heel blood collection (guthrie screening test) in term newborns. H0= There was no difference between the intervention group who received non-pharmacological pain management education and the control group's level of anxiety and use of non-pharmacological applications. H1= The use of non-pharmacological methods is different between the intervention group and the control group that received non-pharmacological pain management education. H2= Anxiety scores of the intervention group that received non-pharmacological pain management education and the control group were different. H3= Some characteristics and anxiety levels of mothers have an effect on their use of non-pharmacological methods. It was carried out between July - September 2021 at the Akşehir State Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic, which serves in the Akşehir district of Konya province.
This study will be conducted to investigate the effect of acupressure, to be applied to the GallBladder (GB) 31 "Fengshi" acupuncture point before the vaccinations, on interventional pain caused by the vaccinations in infants. Considering the literature, it can be seen that acupressure is used in many fields and it's among the non-pharmacological methods that have been used by nurses in recent years.However, no study has been found to be conducted on the effect of acupressure, applied before the vaccine, on interventional pain caused by the vaccinations in infants. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of acupressure applied before the vaccination on interventional pain in infants.
The study will be conducted with the randomized controlled experimental method. The children who attended the pediatric emergency department will divide into two groups via randomization in the computer environment. After the randomization, children in the experimental group will play with finger puppets under the direction of the researcher during venipuncture. On the other hand, no application will perform on the children in the control group during the venipuncture. The parents will also be found next to their children in both groups during the procedure.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of the methods of cold application and Shotblocker on the pain and anxiety level of the children in reducing the pain associated with the intramuscular injection. The hypotheses of the study: Hypothesis 0. Shotblocker and the cold application to the injection site prior to the injection are not effective in reducing the pain associated with the intramuscular injection in children. Hypothesis 1. Using ShotBlocker during the intramuscular injection reduces the pain and anxiety experienced by the child. Hypothesis 2. Applying cold to the injection site prior to the intramuscular injection reduces the pain and anxiety experienced by the child. This research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study in a university hospital in Çorum. The sample of the study comprised 150 children aged 7 to 12 years who were brought to the pediatric injection room in a university hospital and had intramuscular injection. The children were randomized into the Shotblocker (n=50), cold application (n=50) and control (n=50) groups. In addition to Wong-Baker Pain Scale and Child Anxiety Scale, the Child Information Form was used in the study to determine the introductory characteristics of the children and their family.
The study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental trial. The children who attended a pediatric surgical clinic for venipuncture divided into two groups via randomization in the computer environment. After the randomization, the children in the guided imagery group listened to a voice recording prepared in a studio during venipuncture. This voice recording named 'Stroll in the Forest' helped the children to imagine that they are strolling in a forest and guided them. On the other hand, no application was performed on the children in the control group during the venipuncture. The primary outcome of the study was pain and secondary outcomes were heart rate and oxygen saturation values. The pain was evaluated by the children, parents, and observer. The pulse and oxygen saturation values were measured before, during, and after the venipuncture.
The aim of this randomized controlled study with crossover design is to examine the effectiveness of mother-driven interventions, skin-to-skin contact (SSC) and recorded mother's heartbeats as sound and vibration (MHB), compared to oral glucose in relieving neonatal acute pain related to heel lance as a painful procedure. The effectiveness of interventions will be assessed using validated pain scales (PIPP-R and NIAPAS), changes in sensory cortex activation (near-infrared spectroscopy, NIRS) and changes in physiological indicators (oxygen saturation, heart rate, respiratory rate). The secondary objectives will include evaluating the effectiveness of interventions in relation to infant recovery and evaluating the use of NIRS monitoring in relation to neonatal pain assessment scales.
Infants admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) may experience a negative impact due to multiple painful and stressful procedures during their hospitalization. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that healthcare facilities taking care of newborns should implement pain prevention and management programs. There are some non-pharmacological techniques that have been developed to reduce newborn's pain perception, including swaddling, holding, non-nutritive sucking in infants with Post-menstrual age (PMA) below 32 weeks, nutritional sucking with the administration of breast milk or sweeteners above 32 weeks PMA and exposure to maternal voice. Even for parents, the experience of NICU hospitalization of their child is a particularly stressful event, mainly characterized by feelings of exclusion due to lack of interactions with their own baby due to their clinical conditions. Hence, it is very important to intervene as soon as possible on parental stress that can affect the physical and psychological quality of life of the family. This is possible through the application of nursing care plans that involve the parents in daily care and support them in the long process of development and acquisition of autonomy and skills. The nurse is a healthcare provider who has the most frequent contact with newborns hospitalized in NICU and has a key role in preventing, recognizing, and managing newborn's pain. However, there is a considerable discrepancy between the theory and practice: many nurses and doctors are aware that most of the procedures carried out in NICU cause pain. Therefore, nurses also can develop high levels of physical and psychological stress, particularly when they manage a newborn who feels pain. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if maternal involvement in the pain management of newborn admitted to NICU may reduce the level of pain perceived by infant during the heel stick procedure using the Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP) pain scoring tool. In addition, the study's secondary goal will be to investigate if maternal involvement in pain management of newborn may produce positive effects on the mother in reducing stress, depression and anxiety and in reducing nurses' physical and psychological stress.
